Ok i think i get the problem with the u-joint now! So i pretty much gotta deal with it till i make a separate rudder and prop? I will take out the shaft and stuff after i get back from vegas! Ill be back from vegas late monday so i wont be on the fourm for 5 days. So i dont getta drive the boat for a while....also when i get back from vegas i babysit tuesday and wednesday! That means more money to spend on the boat. Note im only 12 so i dont have a job I just can't wait to drive this boat!!
